Springbok winger Aphiwe Dyantyi’s meteoric rise to stardom has seen him singled out by his opposite number as his side’s danger man in Saturday’s Rugby Championship clash against the Wallabies in Port Elizabeth.

The 24-year-old scored two tries in the Boks’ last outing where they pulled off a historic win against world champions, the All Blacks in Wellington, and was a key player in the Lions’ run in Super Rugby, where they fell in the last hurdle against the Crusaders.

Wallabies hatching plan to stop Aphiwe Dyantyi

Wallabies winger Marika Koroibete – who himself scored two tries on his side’s last visit to these shores – has labelled his South African counterpart as the man to stop, as the men from Down Under seek to avoid the dreaded wooden spoon in this year’s edition of the Rugby Championship.

“Dyantyi has been impressive‚” Koroibete is quoted by the Rugby Australia website.

“This week we are going to work on something to stop him from scoring tries. He’s a really exciting player for the Springboks.

“I played my first Test start here in South Africa, and since then I have been in the starting line-up and playing more with the boys.

“It’s given me confidence‚ knowing each other’s game. The last couple of weeks have been tough, but I’m going to play my best and do my best for the team.”

Aphiwe Dyantyi made his international debut against England at Ellis Park in June and got on the scoresheet as he touched down en route to a come-from-behind 42-19 victory.

He has played a further six Tests in the green and gold, crossing the whitewash five times in his seven international appearances overall.
